I was impressed by the formation of F-104 who made the last flight here in italy to salute the Starfighter service. They made a 9 ship formation and flew slow flypasts, making the famous “ziiiiiip” sound that reminds me of F1 cars. I have a 28MB video about it, if somebody’s interested is worth watching.
Agree on the Chinook, I heard them from inside an hangar while hovering and despite the distance the whole structure vibrated!
The opening of 2004 Legens was pretty noisy too, and one of the best sights of my life 🙂

Oscar, looks like you are running 30 l on the rich side, unless its all at lo level.
The owner of the one I occasionally fly had the carb ohd`d in USA a couple of years ago, as the diaphragms were old/brittle,and fuel and oil were excessive;once it was all matched up, it runs sweet as a nut..original motor as fitted in `45…….

I’m not sure I got it right mate, this chart is for the T-6 or TBM? What u said about the conversions?

Alex

It is mine>>300lts/hr in the cruise @ 180kts [plus oil].

gosh, the T-6 burn around 120lts/hr in economical cruise and something 0,25lt/hr of oil.. What’s the cost of avgas there chaps? we reached (and I think passed)the 2,1 € per liter..

Alex

u mean that TBM is really yours mate?
Must burn lotsa fuel uh? And I was concerned about the Harvard consumption..

Alex

150 miles with such bent props??? 😮 😮 😮 😮
